Stuck - Hardware problem

Posted by Coft - October 6th, 2010


(I think I'll stay at the ''every 6th - make a post'' system...)

Do ya want to hear about progress?
That's bad. I have nothing to say.
I WANT to animate. To finish the ''it's been two years - coming soon again'' project, make another, and so on... But I'm stuck. As the title says, it is caused by hardware prob- oh wait.
''I can't withstand working on such a ****ty computer anymore" IS a hardware problem, right?
//This sentence was followed by 30 lines of thoughts and complains about how bad my comp is. Come on. Who cares? Deleted. Simply:

I am going to buy a new one. But thit isn't a cheap thing and I haven't much money left for sudden needs.
=>
I won't be able to fully work sooner than this Christmas. And I fear this. You know what it is gonna be followed by, right? Deja Vu anyone?

It is January. I just finished some project I was working on. Finally, it is time to finish Mad-n II. The deadline is on some day during Summer.

...Duke Nukem Forever, right? I can't believe this is the third time a year is going to start like this. Every time, during Spring, +/- April, I got bored, stopped working on it. But it won'be like this forever. Look:

2008 - What?
2009 - A tricky animation, Mad-n II delayed at 5000 frames.
2010 - Got bored in July, Mad-n II's progress stopped at 9 500 frames.
My guess:
2011 - Made a flash for... for Robot Day?(O_o) Mad-n II delayed at 16 000 frames.
2012 - Made... something. Delayed at 20 500 frames.
2013 - 25 000 frames. Done. Hooray.

This is gonna happen, unless I'll do something with it. Honestly, do you think I want it to happen? Because of that, I'll try to get as much as possible from the following three months, then... hmm. Is it so hard to do at least 2000 frames a month? It's not. I wonder what I was doing last years.

If this made you think ''WTF? Why now?''.
Well... I accustomed to work on slow computer. Somehow, watching 30fps animation at 20 fps or lower has become normal to me. But, now... I just can't. Mainly:
I decided to redo the first scene - +/- 2500 frames. The scene has no ''action element'' to amaze you. This forces me to make it cool by its timing, music synchornization, cuts, and that is impossible to do with such speed.

(LAUGH AT IT!!!?!11! My current comp: :D (2003 or so? How could I make ATA with this...)
Northwood, Intel Pentium 4, socket 478, 2.6GHz, 1 physical core(obviously)
2GB RAM
ATI Radeon X1650
I consider other parts being too unimportant...)
